Singer-Songwriter: Alice Merton
Singer-Songwriter: Alice Merton Thrilled to welcome back, Friend of the show Alice Merton to Jrodconcerts: The Podcast. Alice Merton has undeniably become known as the girl with no roots. In her songs, she’s always talked about celebrating life as a nomad, and making a home wherever you want it to be. With this next chapter however, her thoughts turn inward, and instead of finding a home in the outside world, she goes on an internal journey of feeling lost on the inside and asking the question of all questions: who am I supposed to be, and how well do you know yourself at all? The new EP, Heron EP – out now via her own independent record label Paper Plane Records Int. – explores the journey of self-discovery and self-fulfilment. It questions one’s own happiness, in a world where we are constantly influenced by other people’s opinions on what happiness is for them, especially through social media. Alice will waste no time in taking Heron on the road as she embarks upon a long-awaited headline tour in the US in May including here in Nashville at The Basement East on May 13. A selection of European festival dates have also been confirmed, including Hurricane and Southside in Germany, Les Déferlantes in France and Seaside in Switzerland.
